Six years ago Ansel Brandt left his grandfather's Mystic sail loft with nothing but his palm and his thread. His family has called him 'the sail folder' ever since. Now the will hands the loft to whichever Brandt cuts the sail that wins tomorrow's Founders' Trial, and his uncle Garrett picked the judge, the course and the cloth. Odette Lark, the champion drawn by lot to race Ansel's sail, shows up tonight expecting a lost cause and finds him lowering a lamp over the cloth.
